Half Past The Hour

Machine Translations


all these days we're just moving through 
pack our seasons carefully 
all the little things in boxes 
take them down to the fair 
gravity's ribbons in the air 

and i see you've been hard on yourself 
when the sun shines everywhere 
and the town folk they're talking all the time 
but you just sit there with your alien mind 
and it's half past the hour 

your truth is just someone elses guess 
when there's flowers everywhere 
your boys so old for his age 
with a world to rearrange 

when you just don't get time in your shell 
on the line with mr grey 
all this time i've been being someone else 
and you come up singing saying 'here i am' 
and it's half past the hour
